Siegel theta series for indefinite quadratic forms

Number Theory 2021-06-25 v2

Abstract

The modular transformation behavior of theta series for indefinite quadratic forms is well understood in the case of elliptic modular forms due to Vign\'eras, who deduced that solving a differential equation of second order serves as a criterion for modularity. In this paper, we will give a generalization of this result to Siegel theta series.
